Man you guys get screwed with the mono-spec 86 in the US. In Australia we get the two grades with the higher spec gaining the interior/gauges of the BRZ. That said though the price goes up a fair whack for the top spec

Next year they will do better by us. Thank Scion for the whole Monospec thing. Although the guys that think they will get a full house 86 for Scion prices may be in for a surprise.

It just occurred to me... there isn't a badge for the 86? (where 'FR-S' once was)

Nice review, thanks! By the way, you can find nice twisty roads in DC area too, Not sure about MD, but in VA try Henderson Rd/Yates Ford Rd between Springfield/Burke and Manassas, or Bellview Rd in Great Falls area. You probably won't reach 70 there but still it's fun.

I personally prefer it this way it adds to the mystery to the average person of what the car is.

Yes very true. I am very jealous of the pricing over there

Thank you!

GLOL at yet another US car reviewer mentioning the lack of armrest and the manual HVAC controls as a negative in a... sports car.

The only badges on the outside if the car are the Toyota emblems for front and rear, a new circular '86' badge on the front fenders and the '86' logos embossed on the headlights.

I believe the TRD wheels in the review are around 3-3.5lbs lighter each vs stock. And they are forged.

SuperDave · 09-30-2016, 02:09 AM

another thing i noticed about the new engine, and i drove it about 6-10 miles, is that it's much cooler than the zenki. i revved the engine up beyond 6k so i wasn't babying it.

Once you pull them out of the box you can clearly feel a weight difference between these and OEM. (For me anyway)

i was interested in the forged wheels until i discovered i can get 17x9 wheels forged for more than a pound less weight. i guess not all forging is the same.

on a side note, my jdm enkei made sti wheels 17x7.5 weigh about the same as the forged wheels.

You're right. A typical one piece 17x7 forged wheel would be in the 16 lbs range. 17.4 lbs is certainly on the heavy side. I have my suspicions they aren't fully forged wheels (cost being the other red flag here), but I'd curious to know who made the wheel/see the manufacturing stamps on the wheel.
